Transformed by the media into a religious and historical relic overnight, the artifact made its way to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto, where 100,000 people congregated to experience what had been prematurely and hyperbolically billed as the closest tactile connection to Jesus yet unearthed. Within a few months, however, the ossuary was revealed to be a forgery.

Ward Connerly's Racial Privacy Initiative, 2001 - 2003 --Acknowledgments --Notes --Select Bibliography --IndexThis book looks beyond the headlines to uncover the controversial history of California's ballot measures over the past fifty years. As the rest of the U.S. watched, California voters banned public services for undocumented immigrants, repealed public affirmative action programs, and outlawed bilingual education, among other measures. Why did a state with a liberal political culture, an increasingly diverse populace, and a well-organized civil rights leadership roll back civil rights and anti-discrimination gains? Daniel Martinez HoSang finds that, contrary to popular perception, this phenomenon does not represent a new wave of "color-blind" policies, nor is a triumph of racial conservatism. Instead, in a book that goes beyond the conservative-liberal divide, HoSang uncovers surprising connections between the right and left that reveal how racial inequality has endured. Arguing that each of these measures was a proposition about the meaning of race and racism, his deft, convincing analysis ultimately recasts our understanding of the production of racial identity, inequality, and power in the postwar era.American crossroads ;30.ReferendumHistory20th centuryCaliforniaCaliforniaRace relationsHistory20th centuryCaliforniaPolitics and government1951-affirmative action programs.american politics.ballot initiatives.bilingual rights.california.civil rights.conservative liberal divide.controversial.discrimination.diversity.historical.history buffs.immigrants.inequality.liberal politics.modern history.nonfiction.postwar california.postwar era.public services.race issues.racial conservatism.racial identity.racial inequality.racism.undocumented immigrants.united states.voter rights.ReferendumHistory979.4053HoSang Daniel Martinezauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1018945DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910790057503321Racial Propositions2399550UNINA
